A new craze for making a somersault before kissing has been sending China's Internet wild.

Thousands of Internet users have taken up the trend on China's popular website Sina Weibo, an equivalent of Twitter. They uploaded pictures or short clips of themselves performing a somersault before kissing their loved ones or friends.

Some can perform a perfect stunt, but some failing to do so fell on the ground and got bruised.
